ONE Sunset Is Introduced In March 2007 As
One Singular Setting For A Perfect Evening

(Los Angeles, February 2007) One Sunset will launch on the Sunset Strip in March 2007 as the most recent in a collection of incomparable social dining destinations created by female hospitality duo, Celeste Fierro and Erica Cohen. With a touch of inspiration taken from the team?s Lower Manhattan gem, One Little West 12th, One Sunset will fuse impeccable dining with relaxed ambiance, giving Los Angeles a much needed ?staple? experience that will act as both low key chic and high end exclusive.
Owner Erica Cohen states that “One Sunset will have the best of both worlds in the LA restaurant and nightlife scenes. We create an atmosphere that encompasses all elements of a fantastic night out."

“We create such a captivating ambiance between our chef's amazing menu, the sexy vibe and great music, we are a one stop destination."

The space combines a sultry deep color scheme, with dark sleek custom made furnishings that create a feeling of subdued opulence. Designer, Lionel Ohayon takes inspiration from exotic spaces, subtle details and motifs one might find in southern Spain or northern Africa. A feeling of warmth and excitement envelope you as images of a linen tent with cypress trees in the middle of a dessert, a clear aqua grotto lit by candle light, and a cozy room illuminated by reflections on gold and other precious metals surrounding the room come to mind. The space was designed to transform throughout the night, fitting any dining plans, from a delicious cocktail after work to a sophisticated yet relaxed atmosphere for dinner, slowly becoming a lounge as the night progresses.

“The space has a playful element by which distinct areas harmoniously blend together to create a unified venue, states designer Lionel Ohayon. The flow amongst each of the separate areas is highly conducive to meeting people, facilitates the transition between “having a table" and “being at the bar", and is accommodating for any number of groupings."

The space is made up of three rooms, including the Champagne bar, Blue room and Candle room. At first glance, One Sunset catches your attention with views through the intimate garden patio that overlooks the Sunset Boulevard. An indoor tented space with warm light glowing behind the delicately draped fabric, light floors, a white stone clad bar, and an illuminated communal table made with alabaster and dark wood are some of the stand out features of the Champagne room.

As you pass through the draped curtains into the Blue room, an illuminated raspberry resin strip highlights the bar top. Two billowy trees drape their white branches at each end of the bar holding small candles that infuse the space with soft light and a sense of playfulness. The opposite side of the Blue room has comfortable banquets, lit by a glow cast through the branches overhead. As you make your way toward the back of the space, the feature candle wall catches draws attention toward the back of the room. The candle wall is made of units that can pivot individually to either open up or close off the private room in the back. A trellis like structure surrounds the spaces on the elevated platform creating a more private and intimate surrounding. The VIP room has the ability to be a part of the space or house private parties. The back wall of this space is a metal curtain that shimmers with the reflection of the candle light in front. All the columns are wrapped with leather panels with a delicate embossed detail. The restrooms are designed to replicate the calming feelings one might have in a deep blue pool, proving a relief from all the warm colors that are so vivid in the main space.

One Sunset has chosen Executive Chef Christopher Ennis to fashion a menu of culinary gems that range from simple palate to decadent and rich. Menu items include, Sharing Plates of Prosciutto Encrusted Shrimp Skewers, Duck Confit Cobb Salad, Potted Dungeness Crab Gratinee, Kampachi Sashami with Tangerine and Macadamia Brittle, Sechuan Crusted Prime Beef Carpaccio, and Erica?s Bad Ass Cheeseburgers! From Fenix to Astra and Vibrato, Ennis has created impressive cuisine at some of Los Angeles? most exclusive and revered eateries.

“ONE Sunset's menu is based on a truly innovative New American Sharing Concept. Being on the coast, my menu has a noticeable influence from the sea, as well as being strongly grounded in the use of seasonal, organic, and farmer's market fresh ingredients," states chef Ennis.

Owners Erica Cohen and Celeste Fierro have created a powerhouse hospitality duo, introducing such incredibly successful and high profile restaurants and lounges, including One Little West 12th, STK and Tenjun.
